So last week I made some upgrades to my toshiba C655.
I swapped the HDD for a SSD.
Added 2gb of memory(up to 4gb).
I also swapped the intel celeron cpu for a t8300.
The laptop runs much better, but if I am watching videos(youtube/twitch) the laptop freezes after a while and I have to forcefully shut it off. Is this overheating? What could be the cause if it's overheating? When I took the heatsink off my laptop I noticed it was covering two spots, one was the cpu and the other was the on board video. The onboard video had a thermal pad and I didn't replace it. Would adding thermal paste here help?
